As we finally head into the warmer months with spring approaching, Animal Eye Center of NJ’s ophthalmology intern, Dr. Sidney Ryan, and ophthalmologist, Dr. Brad Holmberhaveas some information to share about eyeworms and how you can prevent your pet from getting this type of parasite.

As a pet owner, you always know when something seems “off” about your pet. Perhaps your dog no longer wants to play, is sleeping more, or is constantly blinking. Maybe your cat is walking clumsily, has watery eyes, or keeps bumping into furniture.

Your pet’s eyes are an important part of her sensory system. Keep them in tip-top shape by immediately recognizing problems that could interfere with vision.
